If you convert the postscript file to AI (Adobe Illustrator) file using
ghostscript then you can edit the AI file graphically using a program
called Mayura Draw (see http://www.mayura.com). Mayura can then export it
in postscript as well. I edited postscript files this way several times.
(Mayura is for Windows.)
